Why so “cheap” at CheapSprinklers? Low prices by design — same parts, no compromise

Our prices are lower because of how we run our business — not because the product is different — and we pass those efficiencies directly on to you.

You’re receiving the same brand-new, factory-sealed item sold by big-box, supply-house, or bloated online-warehouse sellers — delivered direct to you, for less.

  • Bulk Purchasing: We buy in high volume to lower per-unit cost
  • Low Overhead: No physical storefronts or unnecessary middlemen
  • Price-First Model: Our business is built around keeping everyday prices as low as possible — so you can put the savings toward other projects or your business.
  • Fast & Efficient Fulfillment: Streamlined US warehouse operations keep costs down and orders moving fast.

The Result: Genuine products with full manufacturer warranty — delivered fast, without paying inflated big-box, supply-house, or bloated online-warehouse markups for the same parts.

IQ4G-USA Network Communication Cartridge: 4G Cellular Data Modem with antenna connector, for use in USA.

Upgrades any ESP-LX Series Controller to an IQ Central Control Satellite Controller

Network Communication Cartridges upgrade ESP-LXME, ESP-LXMEF, ESP-LXD and ESP-LXIVM Series standalone controllers to IQ satellite controllers capable of being controlled by the IQ Platform. The communication cartridge connects to the back of the controller faceplate and provides the communication link between the IQ central computer and the remote site controllers

IQ CELLULAR TROUBLESHOOTING

Specs
  • IQNCC 4G Cellular Cartridge
  • Includes SIM Card and 1st year of communication service
  • Includes embedded 4G Cellular Data Modem with antenna connector
  • Includes internal antenna for plastic controller enclosures (optional 4G external antenna available for metal case controller enclosures)
  • Requires 4G Cellular data service plan purchased from Rain Bird with cellular service included
  • Used for Direct or Server Satellite applications requiring wireless Cellular communication with the IQ central computer
  • 4G Cartridge with included communication service not offered in all areas

Features
  • IQ is the perfect irrigation control solution for parks departments, school districts, property managers, landscape maintenance contractors and water managers. IQ can manage small single-controller sites as well as large multi-controller sites. IQ NCC cartridges are compatible with the ESP-LXME Controller with 1 to 48-station capacity, ESP-LXD Decoder Controller with 1 to 200-station capacity, ESP-LXIVM Controller with 1 to 60-station capacity and ESP-LXIVM Pro with 1 to 240 station capacity
  • IQ NCC cartridges are initially configured through a setup wizard provided in the ESP-LX Series Controller IQ Settings dial position. Communication setting parameters are configured through the IQ software or the NCC Configurator Software designed for netbook/laptop use on the job site
Direct Satellites
  • Single controller sites would use an IQ NCC cartridge configured as a Direct satellite. A Direct satellite has an IQ central computer communication connection but no network connections to other satellites in the system
Server & Client Satellites
  • Multi-controller sites would use one IQ NCC cartridge configured as a Server satellite and the other NCC cartridges configured as Client satellites. The Server  satellite has an IQ central computer communication connection and shares this communication connection with the Client satellites though high-speed data cable or radios. The communication connection between Server and Client satellites is called the IQNet™
  • Satellites on a common IQNet can share weather sensors and master valves
  • Server and Client satellites using high-speed data cable for IQNet communication require installation of an IQ CM Communication Module. Server and Client satellites using radio communication for IQNet communication require installation of an IQSSRADIO radio. Each cartridge kit includes cables to connect the NCC cartridge to connection module and/or radio
